[Timaeus]

Where'd you here your explanation of Durability anyway?

Edit well not there specifically but I forgot where exactly I heard it from and this looks like the source for this idea.

 

[Insufficient Dakka]

I have less than zero faith in that.

It's important to note that everything that Thoth predicts comes true, no matter how circumstances change, especially in later parts where:

Jotaro dies getting his face split in two, just as Thoth predicts. Both in Part 4 when Kira [Bites the Dust] him and in Part 6 where he finally dies against Pucci.

Oh my a new Xenforo site to join.

EDIT: nevermind checked it out, kinda boring. Anyone mind PMing me links to other Xenforo sites that are similar to SB, SV, and QQ?

I liked the less non serious episode like this for the humor.

It is something you expect right out of looney tunes and i had a butt load of fun laughing at it.

It's episodes like this and the repeating toilet problems that remind you: "Oh yeah, JoJo was originally a kids' series."

*Dio rips off half a man's head and describes the texture of Jonathan's carotid* Yup, definitely a kids series at the start.

The first fifteen seconds of the series included a shot of a man gruesomely impaled on a rock after falling off a cliff.

It was still part of Weekly Shonen Jump for 17 years alongside Yu-Gi-Oh, Dragon Ball and One Piece.

Just because it featured large amounts of violence doesn't mean it can't be aimed at kids. And just because the target demographic is kids doesn't mean it can't be dark and disturbing.

It's weirdly optimistic for something which is basically a Horror Fantasy Kitchen Sink, though.

It's a Horror Fantasy Kitchen Sink where the entire point is to punch those horrors in the face. Repeatedly. Of course it's going to be optimistic.

 

[LSkullD]

Yeah, but, again, why are the villains so... effed up?

I mean, look at the comedy villain, and then look at his (very disturbing) power.

Did someone say comedy villain with disturbing powers?

Well, the horrors are really only in Parts 1 and 2 with vampires and Pillar Men - everything past that is human villains.

Well something's going on in Part 8 but I dunno what, I'm still in Part 5.

Oh god please don't remind me.

Human villains based on things like Christine and Nightmare on Elm Street.

Shapeshifting and seeing the future are pretty standard powers in fiction.

At first, I thought you said Shitposting and seeing the future.
I am sad now, despite the joy on my face.

 

[LSkullD]

Yeah, but, for the shape shifting, well...

LOOK AT HIS FACE.

GAH.

What, you judging him just because he doesn't conform to your standards of beauty?

Yes.

 

[ElMariachi]

Oh god please don't remind me.

Oh god not that episode!

 

[LSkullD]

No, I'm not judging him for that, I'm judging him because he has escapism issues.

I mean, he copies other people's faces, man.

Considering that Stands are personality powers, there has to be subtext.

That, and look at his face when he's shapeshifting.

That's creepy.

Kakyoin's not a control freak, even though his Stand can be used to make people puppets. Abdul's not a pyromaniac, even though his Stand uses fire.

Iunno, did you see JoJo Abridged? He wanted to become the Fire Lord and destroy the Avatar.
